The Delete Duplicate tool enables you to remove duplicated curves and/or faces that have been picked. A group of entities can be picked using multi-pick. All duplicated entities are detected and removed (only one entity from the two or more duplicates remains). The entities being checked can have different attributes (color, pen, line font, etc.).
Notes:
Only full overlapping between two or more entities (within user defined tolerance) is detected.
Invisible entities (located on undisplayed sets or hidden entities) are not considered.
Face edges are ignored .
Composite curves and sketches are not considered for checking.
The default maximum distance deviation is 0.01 for mm documents or 0.001 for inch documents.
Only faces that are not stitched to any other face(s) may be deleted. If faces are stitched they are only detected by "show" (not deleted).
To close internal parting curve loops:
Select Tools / Delete Duplicate from the main menu.
Click Maximum Distance and enter a value. This value is the maximum deviation allowed between two entities in order for them to be considered duplicates.
Pick the required entities.

Press OK
or Apply
